Introduction to Cardiorespiratory Training

December 20, 2009 by mbluestone94 

There are many components to an effective conditioning and weight loss program such as nutrition, flexibility training, strength training, muscular endurance training, and cardiorespiratory training.  The scope of this particular course is to teach you the most effective strategies for cardiorespiratory training.

To have a complete cardiorespiratory training program I must first teach you the bare basics which entail its purpose, the aerobic energy system and anaerobic energy system, your personal heart rate training zones, the cardiorespiratory assessments used to gauge progress,  and how to apply your training zones to stage and interval training. Upon completing the cardiorespiratory training course I will provide you with 13 professionally designed cardio routines which are specific to your goal.

If you are new to Mission Possible Disease Prevention my name is Mike Bluestone and I am a personal trainer certified through NASM.  You are currently viewing a post listed in my educational category and I refer to it as a course because my mission is to educate those willing to learn, so lets begin with an overview of what you need to know and will learn about cardiorespiratory fitness.
